They shove that mormon religion down people&#39;s throats and yet on the other side of their mouths they spew that a father has no legal rights to his own biological child. <br />Utah is screwing itself. I am sick of all of the biased judges, courts and attorneys who just all happen to hold on to children who do not belong in that state just long enough to cry out &quot;it is in the best interest of the child to remain living with these people,,who all just happen to be mormons by the way,&quot;, regardless if they have abusive and criminal history. It is Utah collecting kids at it&#39;s very worse for the sake of religion. Take from the gentile to build up the mormon faith. John Wyatt, brace yourself, look how long your case has been in the Utah higher courts,,they are so corrupt and they will hang their decison on how long your daughter was stuck in a house not a home in UTAH.

Your comments are a critical part of our common dialogue.<br /><br />Continuing the thread: I think the vulnerabilities that accompany adoption are multi-layered and very difficult to unpack. Three lives compete for solace, love, and confidence in the rightness of the decisions made. There is the birth mother herself and whose story we may never be truly know. There are the expectations of the adopting parent(s) and the adopted child. When each adoption is unique unto itself, who can judge what is right, wrong, or best? Certainly love and honesty are central to the equation as well as not fearing fall-out. No matter how a family is formed, its trajectory is not one that can be predicted.<br /><br />If you&#39;d like to write more, please let me know.facroninhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07689101872981710945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917882934620536579.post-838180535469047032010-09-16T06:27:34.069-07:002010-09-16T06:27:34.069-07:00This is an honest post that strikes a chord with m...This is an honest post that strikes a chord with me. My experience has been similar.<br /><br />The first commenter speaks to the entitlement felt by adoptive parents; it&#39;s a common theme and I believe a fair one. But I see it a little differently than the commenter does. I don&#39;t believe adoptive parents start adoptions with maliciously entitled attitudes, a la &quot;I want a baby so I&#39;m going to take YOURS.&quot; I think many of come to adoption, at least when and how my husband and I did, with the belief that by the time we adopted that our children&#39;s mothers in particular had made a sad but unpressured decision to surrender their child.<br /><br />Now I know better. This makes no difference to my kids or their families, though; they will live with the fallout forever. Knowing that should motivate all adoptive parents to speak out as you do in the post, and to work to correct what we now know is a terribly flawed practice.<br /><br />Glad I found your blog.Third Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06310395341252295955noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917882934620536579.post-30004587720190511232010-09-14T07:20:27.357-07:002010-09-14T07:20:27.357-07:00Great article but one thing you should know to mak...Great article but one thing you should know to make your story factual is the adoptive parents have been aware of John Wyatt from day 1.<br />They didnt care. As John Wyatt is not a Mormon therefore he doesnt in there opinion deserve the child that they would like to evangelise from birth to Mormonhood.<br />So I understand your life is very unique but please be aware for yourself that this is not a fair system here. John Wyatt and most importantly baby Emma Wyatt rights have been attacked by Mormons.<br />Hope you can contact the press to inform them of this when you see the stories anywhere<br />Have a great day.<br />Have no sympathy for the adoptive parents except that there religion has not quite taught them right from wrong.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1917882934620536579.post-49633294773225819092010-08-12T07:12:05.507-07:002010-08-12T07:12:05.507-07:00Marie -- You make a very good point about not wait...Marie -- You make a very good point about not waiting; it&#39;s a challenge to all of us.

She&#39;s adopted internationally; we did a search when she was 4 years old. Yes, of course, seeing her daughter let her know &quot;that the child she bore is thriving and well loved.&quot; How could it not?? And after reading the heart-breaking stories of internationally adopted adults who feel cut off from their origins, how could we not do our best to connect her to her first mother?<br /><br />I know that people say, &quot;It&#39;s my child&#39;s decision&quot; but by waiting until he or she is an adult, you are probably making a choice FOR him or her. Any information you have to trace your child&#39;s birth mother will, by then, be 18-20 years out of date. I know in many cases, such as adoptions from China, finding birth families is incredibly difficult, but that is not necessarily the case for other sending countries or domestic adoption situations.<br /><br />There are a number of us who have taken the leap into international open adoptions. I hope you join us.<br /><br />MarieAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
